And Abraham reasoned with Abimelech concerning the matter of a well of water which Abimelech's servants have taken violently away, and Abimelech saith, 'I have not known who hath done this thing, and even thou didst not declare to me, and I also, I have not heard save to-day.' And Abraham taketh sheep and oxen, and giveth to Abimelech, and they make, both of them, a covenant; and Abraham setteth seven Lambs of the flock by themselves. And Abimelech saith unto Abraham, 'What are they -- these seven lambs which thou hast set by themselves?' And he saith, 'For -- the seven lambs thou dost accept from my hand, so that it becometh a witness for me that I have digged this well;' therefore hath he called that place 'Beer-Sheba,' for there have both of them sworn. And they make a covenant in Beer-Sheba, and Abimelech riseth -- Phichol also, head of his host -- and they turn back unto the land of the Philistines; and Abraham planteth a tamarisk in Beer-Sheba, and preacheth there in the name of Jehovah, God age-during; and Abraham sojourneth in the land of the Philistines many days.

And Abimelech calleth for Isaac, and saith, 'Lo, she is surely thy wife; and how hast thou said, She is my sister?' and Isaac saith unto him, 'Because I said, Lest I die for her.' read more.
And Abimelech saith, 'What is this thou hast done to us? as a little thing one of the people had lain with thy wife, and thou hadst brought upon us guilt;' and Abimelech commandeth all the people, saying, 'He who cometh against this man or against his wife, dying doth die.'
